in":•'•Jaisunry. 1t\W. he was ap

pointed by I'resident Van Baren (Ml)pctoi' of the port of Boston,-' an ofttce which he held until the accession of Harrison in I.s-m, discharging: its dvui"-1-^ w!h marked energy and fidelity. In' i^H he was thr Hemocratlc eandMate for' Governor of Massa chusetts but waft, not eh-cied. In March of the fo!|.wiug

year '.he wa called

by President 1V1U. to a -eat-in hi- Cabinet as Secretary of the.Navr. a ]»osi_tion which tie held until September, IMS. His brief tenure of the Xavy H")«ar!ment was signalized by Severn! nced .-d reforms, niid rsp»*oialJy !»y two Important adoif.ion's to its usefulness-the naval school at Annapolis ami the astronomical observatory at Washington. Mr. Bancroft resigned his seat in the Cabinet to accept the appointment .of Minister lenipotrntiary to Great Britain, where he remained until the. summer of IM'.». Ills residence in London, apart from the di*t in^ui^hed post he occupied as his country's representative, derived yet further luster front the intimate asooiation into which he was called with the eminent men uf letters and statesmen of the day. Of such'were Mncauley. Mllman. Orote, Ko^ors. HirUcns, Whewell. Peel' and Brougham, in Kn^lnnd: and in Kranc^. liuirot, Mi^net. Lamartine, De Tocquev'ille and others. The historian did not fail to avail himself of the rare opportunl ties which his public and private relations afforded for enriching his store of documents upon American history. The publio archives in Knjihuid and France w«re thrown open to him. and many private collections of manuscripts wer placed at his disposal. Upon his return to Amerira Mr. Bancroft made New Yorl: his plac of residence and resumed active work upon his history. At the obsequies held in New York upon the passage of the remain* of President Lincoln through that city after the assassination in April. 18fl.\ Mr. Bancroft, by request of th« municipal povormnent. ielivered the eulogy, lu February following, by invitation of Congress and in the presence of that body uud of the assembled ofllcers of the Government, he pronounced an oration upon the life and serv* ices of Abraham Lincoln in the House of Representatives at Washington. in tho summer of 18vr Mr. Bancroft received the appointment of Minister Plenipotentiary at Berlin. The Kingdom of Prussia at this lime, as a result of the civil war of the previous year with Austria, had formed with the lesser States of North Germany the North German Confederation, and to it the new envoy was also accredited. Mr. Bancroft ut ouee applied himself to the settlement of an international question which fur threequarters of a cntury had been an unceasing source of discord between the United

States and Germany, as well as other European powers. On February iW, 1S6S. six months after his arrival at Berlin, a treaty was coneluded by him with the North German Confederation mutually recognizing the right of expatriation and naturalization. Treaties to like effect were during the ensuing summer convluded by Mr. Bancroft with the remaining »th«m separate! powers of Germany, viz: Bavaria. Baden. Wurtemburg and HesseDarmstadt. l.'pon returning to the United States in 1X71 Mr. Bancroft established himself at Washington, and in tho sumo year published the tenth volume of his history, which brought the narrative to the treaty of peace in i?sv. In the succeedlug years Mr. Bancroft devoted himself wholly iti continuation of his great work, to the preparation of the history of tho formation of the constitution, which appeared in two volumes in the spring of lhW. Mr. Boncroft's hours of relaxation have been for many years devoted to the enthusiastic culture of the rose, of which his collection both at Wash Ington and at his summer residence at Now* port surpasses probably in number of varieties and perfection of specimens, any other private collection in the country.

He regarded his life work as tlnished two years ago, and of late had done no literary work. During the last deoed* h« had

At 7:30, when nut one Republican and five Democrats were on tho floor, another attempt was made to adjourn, but enough Republicans wero awakened to prevent it.

On motion of Senator aulkner an amendment was adopted striking out the clause jrivinjj the chief supervisor of elections power to transfer any supervisor for service in one part of Congressional district to another part of the same distriet

About 10 clock tl®-y entered a clmmber underneath the dining-room and found such an accumulation of tr

that

they c»uld not breathe, and it was suypested that a hole be sawed through the floor of the dininr-eoom in order to obtain fresh air. Tins was done, and just as the boh' was made one of the dining-room girls, who was sweeping the floor, stepped upon a match, and in an instant an explosion occurred which not only wrecked the building but killed two girls and maimed and injured a dozen other employes. The force of the explosion was so o-reat that it blew out the flame of the ijrnifed gas and no lire followed the awful ruin which the shock had caused. The whole city rocked as if in an earthquake and all the windows mi the square were demolished, while the wreck of the hotel bnildiny was all but complete, the otdy r«s,his in the house escaping destruction beinir the parlors and the oflice. Had the explosion occurred ten minutes later the loss of life would have been fright fill, as nenrly a hundred people were waiting in the rooius-to be called to dinner.

When the work of removing the dead and rescuing the dyinjr was begun it was found that Katie Walters, a waitress, had hern killed outright. Klhi Johnson, a dining-room girl, was found alive under a mass of brick and mortar, but she died shortly after being carried to a place of safety.

Marvin, owner of the. building, who with the plumbers was under the dining-room floor when the explosion occurred, was probnbly fatally hurt, as lie inhaled the flames of the burning gas.

Frank Andrews. one of the proprietors, had his right eye knocked out and was seriously bruised about the face and throat. Charles 1 Jraves.

The tinaucial loss v^l! be about S'-Jo,-000 on the building ami sjO.oon on the furniture, all fully insured. It is a question whether any insurance will be realized, as none of the destruction was caused by fire. The excitement throughout the citv .over,..the catastrophe is great.

.i,

chairman of the.

select committee on the world's fair, on Saturday presented to the House the report of lie sub-committee that went to Chicago to examine into the condition of matters there in relation to the world's fair. A synopsis is as follow s:

It says that- the power assumed ty -*the World's Columbian Commission has produced confusion as well as caused unnecessary expenditure of public money whiwh laid b'-en intended by Congress to pay the expenses of Urn Government exhibit, and not to pav excessive'salaries to the ofllrers ot the commission. Provision, the report been inad&-to pay the president, Mv*.*tarv and director general annual salaries of »r,'.oio. iHu.tM) and ?].v OdU respectively. and u'.^o •fSJi'Hi to the "vice chairman of the exerunve committee." These salaries, ui tlje opadon of the committee, yc excessive ami--LvhouJd not be continued F.xrnsive expense- has V.no bi'en incurred in the appointment-, of -such a lat^c nundxu* as 15.wemen on the board t.f ladv managers and the calling to^ether-iM the board, when the-duties which wi!l ricv.'.ivc upon it were not readv foivits aMeutton. I heAmpoit •ays: ... "Vour vommince are «-f thO'deiMd^l'ovornou that the fair tan not well be cououeten to a successful termination under the )hial.manage*. mcnt which is now tu operation in'c.ens»»ipjoiice of the construction placed upon the law by the World's Columbian commission. The commission has exceeded It^ power by the appointment of ottlecrs and committees to conduct the management of the lair in its executive details, which, in oi)r in-, terpretation of the )mv, b«'lehgs Mkle!* tothe World's Colutniian Kxpositibn md it^ officers. The commission was giveil a quasi veto power and not that of taking charge of the execution of the plans for Mie fair. From the fact that the commission is honorary ami without salary tne conclusion is reasonable that its duties were not intended to b- e\acting or cou tinuous so that they would si.*riou.~iy interfere with the members" private business.

According to our interpretation of the law, it was the intention of Conyre^s thal tl.e World's Columbian Imposition- that is. the company incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois—should have tho executive control of th«: fair, and. this heing -o, the-relectton of the til rectot-^eueral. the rhivf executive othcer 01 the fair, by the World's Columbian. i^uuiuussiori and the payment of a salarv ^to'?.hins «»ut of the Government fund s.hotiiil .be"^discontinued. The report expresses tie opinion', that the city, which w»,s e.j. i,m} t»v Congress to bu\e thi- pnvdege of1 h«dd ng Jrte-' fair and which will b'-ar pracJ.lcally thc whole burdt of the expense shou hi have .the-"so|,» o*»ntrol of each executive management.: anu believes that .Chicago v\H! prove, hei-seli pilly equal lo the successful mnttagemcnt of:the enterprise. v": 'J'ho report says that the progress in ji,e j»re. paration of the Government exhibit is a«t-jrieiYt-as could have been exjKicte.tl. ami that-the result of the-w:rk »f the board of Mv«.rfimeut. control has taken tangible and .sat j^fae^*'«rv shape.

Jn order to carry out tbe suggestion^nf the report to place the whole enterprise on a more solid footing and carry out the oyident intention of Congress the board submits joint resolution directing, the Secretory .of tin. Treasury not to approve the payment of any expense attendant upon a meeting of the WorldV Columtdan Commission or of the b«iard of lady manag»!rs, except. snch meetings as may be called at the time of the dedication and opening of the world's fair, nor lo approve the payment of any expense attendant upon a meeting of the executive'.committee of the Worlds Cohnnhi.m Commission'-•!* the oxecutivc 'committee of the b^ard of lady managers, except such meetings us mav be hold not .oftener than once in' six months': nor to approve the payment of any salary.to any officer of the World's Columbian Commission out of any money which has been or may be available for such purposes other than an annua
